Community College: OCC soccer players move on

Orange Coast College men’s soccer players Spencer McDearmon and

Geno Vitale-Sansosti, a pair of first-team, all-Orange Empire Conference

selections, have finalized their transfer plans, Coach Laird Hayes said.

McDearmon will play for Cal State Fullerton in the fall and

Vitale-Sansosti will play at Vanguard.

McDearmon, a standout defender, was selected as Coast’s Most Valuable

Player as he and team captain Vitale-Sansosti helped guide the Pirates to

the state championship game and a No. 4 finish in the National Soccer

Coaches Association of America rankings.

Vitale-Sansosti led OCC with 15 goals, including four against Palomar.

McDearmon and Vitale-Sansosti became the second and third members of

last fall’s team to announce their transfer plans. In January, Matt

Moseley announced that he will play at UC Irvine this fall.
